This car is a reincarnation of the Iacocca HP upgrade years of the late 70’s at Ford. Slap a few 3M Corporation decals on the side of the plastic extended body and change the HP rating from SAE net to SAE gross. This US import wannabe needs to get a personality lobotomy and go back to bit roles in Pixar movies. Jeesch!!!

Thu, 17 Nov 2011 08:39:00 +0000http://www.slashgear.com/?p=195998#comment-154187We BAIL out Chrysler Corp. cancel their outstanding bonds, sell their stock to the UAW and Fiat (Fix it Again Tony) and THIS is what they call the NEW Chrysler Corporation? HA. This is technology from the 80’s recycled back to the super stupid uber lightweights of this country. Well…maybe not, sales ARE off some 36,000 units from projections.

The REAL problem with THIS car is that the AVERAGE American will have to buy two of them (one for each foot) in order to get around. At least they can store them in their walkups.

Thu, 17 Nov 2011 06:36:00 +0000http://www.slashgear.com/?p=195998#comment-154167For what this car is it’s pretty impressive. 160hp in an extremely light car would be an absolute blast. “knows nothing about cars” describes you better than the author of this article. At least he did his research. You sir are a hypocrite.

Thu, 17 Nov 2011 06:03:00 +0000http://www.slashgear.com/?p=195998#comment-154163Thats very incorrect on the 0-60 time. it takes 6.5 seconds to 60 for the fiat 500 abarth. That 9.4 is what the regular fiat 500 does.

Thu, 17 Nov 2011 05:57:00 +0000http://www.slashgear.com/?p=195998#comment-1541600 to 60 in 9.4 seconds is pathetic.

Dumb article from someone who is either easily impressed, knows nothings about cars or was paid by Fiat.

Thu, 17 Nov 2011 05:33:00 +0000http://www.slashgear.com/?p=195998#comment-154154Too bad your article was so obviously not reviewed by an editor for mistakes. “more sexier”? “a impressive”? “one-of-a-kind Abarth badging”? (So they put it on one car, and no others? Wrong. They put it on EVERY Abarth model, which hardly makes it one-of-a-kind, you dope!)
